Bureaucratic Bias or Voter-Side Factors? Testing Competing Explanations for Racial Gaps in Vote-By-Mail Ballot Signature Rejections
Differential rejection rates of vote-by-mail (VBM) ballots by race and ethnicity are often attributed to voter-side factors—such as cultural or linguistic barriers—rather than to discretionary decisions by signature evaluators. We assess this claim with a two-part research design. In Study 1, an audit of Washington State ballot status reports revealed that ballots cast by voters with Hispanic surnames are substantially more likely to be rejected …
An exploration of community development higher education in the United States
The field of community development has grown substantially over the past few decades. This is characterized by an increased demand for professionals who can engage in community development efforts and assist in establishing impactful solutions to community issues. This increased demand has created a need for robust Community Development Education programs in higher education to educate community development practitioners. However, due to the mini…
Foundational Knowledge and Skills in Community Development
The challenges metropolitan regions, cities and towns, neighborhoods, and villages face require community development skills that address complex community problems, engage multiple publics, and pursue collective strategies.

The article presents the results of a community development educator survey and illu…
Knowledge, values and skills essential for effective community development practice
The field of community development has grown substantially over the past few decades. This is characterized by an increased demand for professionals who can engage in community development efforts and assist in establishing solutions. However, due to disparities within the field, there is no consistent education available for community development practitioners. To address this issue, researchers conducted a Delphi study with an expert panel of p…
Beyond “Place”
For many migrants and refugees, place provides a common sense of territorial identity despite these groups having roots elsewhere. Using the case of the Hmong diaspora, the following calls for a reconsideration of how place is theorized in planning and introduces the term “translocal placemaking” to better reflect new social formations and the overdetermination of locality. This relational conception of place captures the complexity of spatial an…
Community development and democratic practice
In this introductory article, we discuss the theme of the Special Issue of Community Development focused on community development and democratic practice. Seven articles are summarized and highlight a range of case studies that vary by location, scale, and purpose, followed by a reflective essay. Drawing from the articles in the Special Issue and a series of joint learning exchanges on the topic sponsored by the Kettering Foundation, we then outl…

Public Space Praxis
Public space has increasingly become a critical issue in American urbanism. This article examines how the act of Latina/o identity formation in public spaces of American metropolises contain the possibility of new democratic formations. The evidence of Latino/a heritage and culture in spatial interventions, appropriations and practices are a type of place-making activity. This identity-based spatial practice harnesses public participation and car…
